young Moodys mother, most estimable
lady of the Unitarian faith, to whose infiu-
ence and superior traits many of the strong
elements of Mr.. Moody's character and
work are confessedly due. In 1854 he
sought employment in Boston shoe
store, and in the following year came to
Chicago, to enter a similar business situa-
ton. In both of these cities his earnest
impulsiveness to do good became a marked
feature of his daily life. The excellent
ministrations of the churches which he at
tended confirmed him in his conviction Of
his life mission, and he resolved to relin-
qush all business Of personal nature and
devote himself to the work of evangelizing.
He took an active interest In the Young
Mems Christian Association of Chicago,
and established the North Market Mission
Sunday school, since become famous for
its success in the conversion of men
TO religion. In the summer of 1861,
says biographer, he devoted most
of his labor to the volunteers of
the war of tire rebellion who
were stationed in Chicago, and in Novem-
her of that year, when the United States
Christian Commission was established,
proceeded under its auspices to the camps
and battle fields of the South, where he
worked, alleviating the sufferings and sup
plying the spiritual necessities Of both
friend and foe.
In August. 1862, he was married to Miss
Emma c. Revell, of Chicago, by reason of
whose sympathy of temper and religious
ardor the union has resulted in great good,
not to them alone but TO the world. Mr..
Moody has been blessed with two children
"a son and daughter
The duties of the Christian Commission
did not prevent him from attending to his
Chicago school. A chapel-Farwell Hall
was built to supply its growing needs,
and soon out of the organization arose an
independent church, of which Mr.. Moody
became the pastor. In 1866 lie was elected
President of the Young Mems Christian
Association, and was incessant and inde-
';igable in his labors to further its work.
it'll two years thereafter, chiefly through
influence, building, admirably adapt
Il to its purposes, was erected at a cost Of
100000.
In October, 1871, the terrible fire, which
devastated Chicago, destroyed Mr.. Moody's
home, Farwell Hall, and his church; but
within a month thereafter the latter was
replaced by wooden structure, called the
North Side Tabernacle, and capable of
holding 800 persons. Here his labors,
aided by the musical abilities of Mr.. San
key. continued through several years, until
the summer of 1873, when he visited Eng
land, accompanied by Mr.. Sankey.
Since that time Mr.. Moody has been I'M
firing in his good work. lie is one of the
most resolute and successful of evangelists.

preached at the First Congregational
Church for the first time in the campaign
against sin and tie devil, and in a few days
his audiences grew SO large that the church
would not contain them. Equal to the
emergency, he at once held services in the
afternoon for the church workers and those
who could attend in the day, and in the
evening for those whose business occupied
their attention during the day. Still his
congregations increased, and from all parts
of the city there came TO him the cry, Come

churches at once threw open their doors for
the work. Ministers of the various de-
nominations united, the Chicago Evangeli-
cation Society was inaugurated, and a
carefully considered, systematic warfare
organized. After being here month, Mr..
Moody determined to call to his assistance
Francis Murphy, the well-known apostle
OF temperance. Feb. 8 Mr.. Murphy de-
livered his first address at Farwell Hall.
